Sketch for a Frieze

Gustav Klimt

Sketch for a Frieze is an original, beautiful, and rare collotype from “Gustav Klimt: Fünfundzwanzig Handzeichnungen”, a limited-edition collection of 25 monochrome and two-color collotypes after drawings by Gustav Klimt.

Edition of 500 numbered prints, with the first group numbered I-X and the second numbered 11-500.

This is a beautiful plate representing a young woman clapping her hands in a very elegant pose, realized with a very fresh and fluid line and some color additions on a few details. Signed on stone on the lower right margin. In excellent conditions, including an ivory-colored cardboard passepartout with some little rips that we wanted to keep in its original state (cm59.3 x 40).

It deals with a collotype of a rapid pencil sketch for a frieze at the Archive Palace in Bruxelles.

Original Title:Skizze zu einem Fries im palais Stocklettes, Brüssel.

The original pencil sketch is held at the Lederer Collection, in Vienna, together with the other original drawings of the portfolio.
